Quote of the Day
Are you an NYC resident who’s a big fan of gay sex? Well, watch out for entrapment because there are young, supple cops out there trying to lure you in by offering to pay you for sex, only to arrest you immediately thereafter. Without sex.
Robert Pinter, a 52-year-old gay man who was arrested for prostitution at the Blue Door in the East Village on Oct. 10, spoke at the town hall meeting. He said a young man — a 29-year old undercover cop who, Pinter said, looked even younger — cruised him in the store. He was “charming and persistent, and we agreed to go home for consensual sex, but as we were leaving he said, ‘I want to pay you $50 [to have sex].’ I didn’t respond, but I thought it was strange,” Pinter recounted. As the men left the store, Pinter said, a group of men who did not show police identification pushed him against the wall
“I thought I’d been set up by a gang,” he said. “I asked them why they were doing this to me. I was totally clueless. They handcuffed me and said, ‘Why the f— do you think we’re arresting you — loitering for the purpose of prostitution.’”
